Elite Group (1775.HK) shares fell 7% to HK$0.465 after the company announced that Chief Executive Officer Tan Huilong will resign, effective April 1, 2026.
The company announced in a filing to the Hong Kong Stock Exchange that Tan submitted his resignation to devote more time to his personal affairs. He will, however, remain as an Executive Director and continue to serve as a member of the company's Nomination Committee and Remuneration Committee.
The Board has appointed Chairman and Executive Director Liang Heqi to take over as CEO on the same date, ensuring a level of continuity in the executive suite. The transition comes after the company recently posted a profit of HK$9.27 million for its interim results, a significant turnaround for the group.

The market will be closely watching for any shifts in strategy under the new leadership of Liang Heqi as he takes on the dual role of Chairman and CEO.
